Hoo hoo~
After defeating the Pitch Black Bone Dragon, perhaps because they had protected Ye Fufu and Mo Yu, these two close companions.
Even though Big Guy had just displayed its own powerful abilities, at that moment, it was like a child waiting for an adult’s reward, enjoying the cute head pats from the two beautiful girls standing on its head.
“Holy Beast, is it so affectionate with humans?”
Seeing Big Guy like this, a flash of disbelief flickered in Professor Yang Ming’s eyes, and he subconsciously wanted to go over and chat with Big Guy—to see how it communicated with Mo Yu and Ye Fufu, and whether he could communicate too.
Swoosh~
But it seemed Big Guy saw through Professor Yang Ming’s intention. Its big tail swept once, warning strangers to keep away, before he could approach.
Seeing this, Professor Yang Ming had to stop. It seemed that if he had the chance later, he would have to have a good talk with these two girls and the owner of this Big Guy.
After all, in the Adventurers’ Guild, although many people had unlocked the Beast Taming Ability, most of these Beast Taming Ability Users only tamed ordinary beasts.
In adventurer teams, they also served as scouts and testers.
After all, if one tamed a spirit beast of too high a rank, like Big Guy, inevitably that Master-Servant Contract would backfire on the tamer due to the beast’s high rank.
The risk was too high, so ordinary beast tamers never attempted it.
At least in Professor Yang Ming’s 30 years of work, he had never seen a precedent of taming such a powerful beast.
As for Professor Yang Ming’s thoughts, Ye Fufu was unaware of them at this moment.
After climbing onto Big Guy’s massive body at its invitation, she saw the wounds caused by its encounter with the Pitch Black Bone Dragon.
“Wow, Big Guy, you’re injured! Let me heal you.”
As the Saintess, Ye Fufu soon had a pure white light flickering around her Priest Staff in hand.
Big Guy did not refuse her treatment.
However, while being treated, the big tail that had just driven away Professor Yang Ming began to sweep the ground incessantly.
Soon, Big Guy drew a pattern on the ground that vaguely resembled the outline of a young girl.
Looking at this pattern, Ye Fufu, who was treating, didn’t realize what it meant for a moment.
But Mo Yu, standing by, looked at the curves and height Big Guy had drawn and quickly realized that it was looking for Su Qi.
“Xiao Qi didn’t come today. If she had come, it would have been dangerous.”
Mo Yu quickly explained to Big Guy. But soon she helplessly discovered… Emmmm, her communication with Big Guy wasn’t on the same level; they couldn’t communicate at all.
‘It seemed later, she would need to bring ‘Su Xixi,’ who acted as an interpreter, over here. By the way, Su Qi said Big Guy really likes vegetarian bento. Next time she comes to the Saint Ruins, she’ll bring one for Big Guy.’
And just as Mo Yu had made up her mind, thanks to Big Guy’s help, they had successfully completed this hunting mission.
She was about to communicate with her team members before returning to the Adventurers’ Guild. After all, at home, there was still a soft and fragrant A Qi waiting for her return.
Calculating the time, A Qi might have already slipped into the futon.
The lazy Little Red Pupil should be asleep by now! Mo Yu naturally wanted to hurry home and continue with her A Qi, to continue what had been interrupted earlier and not yet finished.
“You’re done too? So fast? Hey, what happened here? Why is there such a big gap? What’s with this Big Guy?”
But at that moment, from the entrance that the Pitch Black Bone Dragon had just destroyed in the Fourth Layer, two teams of people walked out in a grand procession.
Mo Yu wasn’t very familiar with these people, because they weren’t local adventurers from Lin City. Rather, they were high-rank S-class Adventurers that the Adventurers’ Guild had summoned from other regions.
And behind these two groups of adventurers, there was a burly man holding the lifeless body of a huge Iron-toothed Giant Bear.
Looking at its pitch-black style, Mo Yu could easily judge that this beast was likely the other beast from the Demon King’s Castle, similar to the Pitch Black Bone Dragon, which the Adventurers’ Guild had mentioned earlier.
After a simple comparison of their sizes, Mo Yu determined that compared to the bone dragon, the Iron-toothed Giant Bear’s strength was probably inferior.
After all, the Pitch Black Bone Dragon was a flying beast. As everyone knows, adventurers face great pressure when dealing with flying beasts.
Since both beasts from the Demon King’s Castle had been eliminated this time, and according to the observers, no new beasts had emerged from the Demon King’s Castle for now, the exhausted group didn’t stay too long in the Saint Ruins.
Soon, they all headed towards the Teleportation Array.
“Big Guy, we’re leaving. Next time, I’ll bring A Qi’s bento and little Xixi over.”
Waving goodbye to Big Guy, and since there was a Professor Yang Ming in the team who specialized in studying beasts, curious about these two beasts, Mo Yu and Ye Fufu, like most adventurers, moved closer to him during the return trip, wanting to hear some information so they could better deal with these special pitch-black beasts later.
Professor Yang Ming didn’t hold back; he soon began analyzing as they walked.
“Combining the intelligence you just provided and the scene I observed of the Pitch Black Bone Dragon, let me sort out the information first. The beasts appearing from the Fifth Plane are different from ordinary Saint Ruins beasts. Their bodies are pitch black and surrounded by black qi. I’ll tentatively call them Pitch Black Beasts. The black qi around these Pitch Black Beasts can have some healing and strengthening effects during battle.”
Everyone nodded in agreement upon hearing this.
After all, everyone had just fought these two Pitch Black Beasts, so they had some understanding of the black qi’s effects. But what Professor Yang Ming said next was the key.
“Based on the information you all just provided about the two beasts, the effects of the black qi are roughly like that, but if you analyze it carefully, you’ll find that black qi differs from black qi. The two teams that fought the Iron-toothed Giant Bear used a priest’s dispel to remove the black qi around it, weakening it before killing it. In a sense, the black qi can be considered a buff for the Pitch Black Beast. But the black qi around the Pitch Black Bone Dragon seemed to be part of it. Even the Purification Spell cast by a Saintess who had awakened the Holy Nun Ability had no effect on it. So it seems that the black qi is itself part of the Pitch Black Bone Dragon. So looking at this, the strengthening effect of this black qi seems to vary when used on different beasts; there are some compatibility differences.”
Hearing Professor Yang Ming’s analysis, the other adventurers present all found it somewhat amazing.
But Mo Yu, who knew Su Qi’s information extremely well, couldn’t help but be slightly taken aback. Because Emmmmm, this black qi, in a way, seemed very similar to the Su Ji Bento that Su Qi sold.
According to forum feedback, after eating Su Ji Bento, there are roughly three outcomes. First, after eating the bento, the most basic effect is to increase some temporary attributes; this is rare.
Second, the most common outcome: after eating Su Ji Bento, besides temporary attributes, it also provides some Experience Points, which are not fixed; some get more, some get less.
As for the third, the two had heard from Su Qi that Big Guy and Xixi had started evolving after eating her bento.
And from this perspective, it seemed that Su Qi’s bento and the pitch-black monsters from the Demon King’s Castle had a similar effect!
Because of this shocking discovery, Mo Yu, as she walked towards the Teleportation Array, thought that while enjoying a wonderful evening with A Qi tonight, after it was over, she could also use this as a topic to discuss thoroughly.
Just thinking about after the exercise, with a thin sheen of sweat, holding A Qi in her arms while looking at the moon and chatting—this was a very beautiful scene.
Thinking of Su Qi’s softness and enchanting fragrance, a happy smile involuntarily curled at the corner of Mo Yu’s lips.
But as the Teleportation Array flickered with light and they returned to Reality, the smile on Mo Yu’s crimson lips began to stiffen as she walked home.
As for why this happened? The reason was actually quite simple.
“Sister Fufu, why are you still following me?!”
